- Offer description:
Harvest pears grown in orchards located in Jackson and Josephine County, Oregon. General orchard labor includes, but is not limited to: harvesting fruit, fruit stripping, and fruit thinning. Workers must follow company policies and procedures including adherence to safe work practices. Must be capable of proficient and safe use of a 10-ft orchard ladder weighing up to 50 lbs. Workers are expected to meet reasonable production and quality standards, as specified by Employer during training at the commencement of employment. Harvest standards will be determined on an orchard-by-orchard basis, taking into account seasonal factors such as crop load, fruit quality, and fruit size. Historical average production rates range between approximately 9 and 10 bushels per hour. The specific production standard for each orchard will be clearly communicated prior to the start of work. Workers will be paid overtime for hours worked over 40 per week. Start and end times may vary by approximately 30 minutes. Employer agrees to offer the worker employment for a total number of work hours equal to at least three-fourths of the workdays of the total period beginning with the first workday after the arrival of the worker at the place of employment or the advertised contractual first date of need, whichever is later, and ending on the expiration date specified in the work contract or in its extensions, if any. 20 CFR 655.122(i). The employer may offer the worker more than the specified hours of work on a single workday. For purposes of meeting the three-fourths guarantee, the worker will not be required to work for more than the number of hours specified in the job order for a workday, or on the worker's Sabbath or Federal holidays. If, during the total work contract period, the employer affords the U.S. or H-2A worker less employment than that required under this guarantee, the employer will pay such worker the amount the worker would have earned had the worker, in fact, worked for the guaranteed number of days. An employer will not be considered to have met the work guarantee if the employer has merely offered work on three-fourths of the workdays if each workday did not consist of a full number of hours of work time as specified in the job order. All hours of work actually performed may be counted by the employer in calculating whether the period of guaranteed employment has been met. Any hours the worker fails to work, up to a maximum of the number of hours specified in the job order for a workday, when the worker has been offered an opportunity to work, and all hours of work actually performed (including voluntary work over 8 hours in a workday or on the worker's Sabbath or Federal holidays), may be counted by the employer in calculating whether the period of guaranteed employment has been met. 20 CFR 655.122(i). If the worker voluntarily abandons employment before the end of the period of employment set forth in the job order, or is terminated for cause, and the employer follows the notification requirements in 20 CFR 655.122(n), the worker is not entitled to the three-fourths guarantee. The employer is not liable for payment of the three-fourths guarantee to an H-2A worker whom the Department of Labor certifies is displaced due to the employer's requirement to hire qualified and available U.S. workers during the recruitment period set out in 20 CPR655.135(d), which lasts until 50 percent of the period of the work contract has elapsed (50 percent rule). 20 CFR 655.122(i).
